To each their own. I shopped around a while and sat in several cars. One of the cars I sat in had the floor mounted pedals. I don't recall who the maker was but is was nice with knockoffs and Salisbury rear.
I'm 6'1" wearing 34x34 pants. I couldn't engage then disengage the clutch because my knee was catching the back of the dash. Unless your 5'6" or less, Id go for driveability over authenticity? |
I will reiterate my advice after a personal experience. First, accept that you do not sit in a Cobra, you wear it. I sat in many different manufacturers cars. In a Superformance with the seat at a comfortable pedal position the steering wheel was on my lap. The Shelby CSX "fit" perfectly.
My advice: From the major roller manufacturers, sit in one before you sign on the bottom line. For any other car, especially a self-built kit, sit in THAT CAR! You can end up with a car that doesn't fit and the tailor on the corner can't tuck in the seams to fix it. |

I have Nick Acton's floor mounted pedal assembly in my Contemporary. I like it quite a bit. I'm in Houston (Kingwood) if you want to roll by and take a look. PM or email me if you want to make a time to roll by, you're more than welcome to. Doug |
Go Willwood, or better yet buy one from KMS or Drew Serb. That way you'll get the support you deserve on this.
